I should have said that some people will view me that way and I have to live with that. After all there are people that will view interracial relationships poorly, people that think if you don't make lots of money you are not worthwhile, etc. We have to live with people who believe those things but we don't have let our self esteem be driven by those people. Sorry I was a bit too brief in my rant!
But what is happiness except the simple harmony between a man and the life he leads? ~Albert Camus
